Upgrade Instructions

Where do I find the upgrade instructions for upgrading from an earlier version of vB5 Connect to vB v5.4.2?

Everything I have found so far seems to be for new installs or upgrades for vB4 or older.

They're basically the same.

1) Download the zip file.
2) Extract the zip file.
3) Backup your database.
4) Turn Off your Forums.
5) Upload the contents of the "upload" folder to your server via FTP.
6) Be sure to allow overwrite for all files and folders.
7) Run the upgrade script. http(s)://www.yoursite.com/core/install/upgrade.php
8) Delete the "install" folder from the core directory.
9) Upload any custom images that may have been overwritten. (i.e. images/misc/vbulletin5_logo.png)
10) Turn your forums back on.
